Last night I had friends over for dinner.... They each had a few beers and I have a pretty good notion they'd also had a bit of marijuana... or something.
It was nice to hang with them and catch up. I hadn't seen them in some time and just chilling out in our own space with visitors was a good time.
Yet I was able to observe behaviors - repeating things, not really 'getting' pieces of the conversation, interpreting things oddly - that reminded me how nice it really is to just enjoy life and to interact with life around me with a clear head and conscience.
